De Nami Bloghop

Today I am excited to take part in the De Nami Bloghop. If
you started out at the beginning, you arrived here from
I  have used De Nami stamps since I made samples for
Papers By Catherine several years ago.  I have always
loved the quiet elegance of these stamps that can also lean
towards the whimsical.  For my card, I decided to go with
the more elegant look, incorporating some beautiful foiled
papers from The Paper Studio.  This poinsettia stamp is actually
two stamps--one solid, and the other an outline stamp.
I stamped the solid stamp first, in red, and then stamped the
outline and embossed it in gold.  The pearl center was  complimented
by a row of tiny pearls along the scalloped border.  I used a
glossy gold  for the base of my card and for the Spellbinders
accent behind the flower.  The red scallop circle is also done in a
shiny cardstock.  I finished off the glitzy theme with a sparkly gold bow.
Now on your way to see some more beautiful cards.
Be sure to leave comments in the post section to be eligable 
for the prizes to be given away by De Nami!

Is there anything more elegant than a touch of gold? It works with red, but would be beautiful with green also. Great design.

What a surprise to see such a non-traditional DeNami card . . . and you did such an amazing job with it! Great use of both the full flower and the flower outline. I also really liked how you repeated the pearls from the flower center to the border. Beautiful card!
